Abstract
Medial tibial stress syndrome is a common injury due to mechanical overload, especially in athletes, causing local inflammation and bone stress. Street running has become increasingly popular, being one of the most practiced physical activities in recent years. The aim of this research is to identify how the assistance of sports physiotherapy professionals would contribute to the care offered to the runner with regards to the prevention of the syndrome. The methodology present in this study is based on a literature review research. The role of the physiotherapist is essential to prevent medial tibial stress, since this professional will be able to guide the runner during his activity. Once injured, the initial treatment requires resting and caring and a pause in the running activity, so that the physiotherapist can treat the injury, and in this way, the runner progressively tends to return to training and running.
